World premieres arriving in Edinburgh this August

Scottish Ballet breathes new life into a familiar story with their take on Coppélia, in a staging by choreographers Jess & Morgs that will have its world premiere at the Festival. The National Theatre of Scotland also brings an exciting brand new dance show exploring the life of Robert Burns, starring Alan Cumming, as well as the acclaimed contemporary retelling of Medea written by Liz Lochhead. In the meantime, you can continue to enjoy full-length productions from our 2021 Festival over on our YouTube channel, including Ariadne auf Naxos, Fatma Said & Malcolm Martineau, and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.
